Who Put the Men in Menstruation?

What would happen if men could menstruate and women could not? Clearly, menstruation would become an enviable, boast-worthy, masculine event: Men would brag about how long and how much. Young boys would talk about it as the envied beginning of manhood Generals, right-wing politicians, and religious fundamentalists would cite 'mens-truat...ion' as proof that only men could serve God and country in combat. If men could menstruate, the power justifications would go on and on. If we let them.
